yes, i saw that on the ppi. the bls should just issue the ppi data under the Standard Industrial Classification System now. they could issue the revised ppi conforming to the North American Industry Classification System later they way the government does every other indicator it has.

with no coffee ingested everyone already knows the price of every raw commoditiy has really increased. what big secret is the government sheltering us from now? i wonder.

Wow, that's truly amazing. These numbers have been released, on time, for over 30 years and now we're expected to believe that a change in method of calculation means they can't be released?! Fine, release them using the old system, and hold off on the new method until you BLS morons can get yer $hit together. This is an outrage...I demand an investigation!
